The balls come in different sizes, and you can often find them for less than $20.
It’s easy to blow them up to the desired size and shove them wherever they’re needed: between boat seats, between seats and consoles, or on the front casting deck.
The rubber surface grips well and won’t leave marks on your boat.
I haven’t found anything else that’s gentler on the boat cover or easier to position and install.
